I like the simple, user-friendly interface and the reminder feature is reliable. However, I wish there wasn't a 70 character limit to each entry. The 3 good things daily exercise has proven benefits, but those studies didn't limit the participants to 70 characters. In fact, they encourage recording in as much detail as possible. That is not easy to do when I can't even complete a sentence in 70 characters or less.

Simple and does what it sets out to do. I've used similar apps before, but most of them are a bit too gimicky or complex for what is needed. This one is perfect. I love the theme colors. They are relaxing to look at. This is the first app of it's type I have used regularly and consistently. My only complaint is I can't find a way to backdate. I ended up staying up a bit later than usual (1am) and I tend to enter my 3 things right before bed as a way to reflect. There was no way for me to enter in for the previous day. I did do a work around where I could do more than one entry per day and just included the date in that post. Either being able to backdate, change the time zone, or choose the start/end to the day would work.

Simple. For something that helps me self reflect simplicity is everything. I hate complicated apps because they ruin the whole Zen I was trying to achieve in the first place.

Great idea I used to do this in my head, but this is a great way to track good moments. I'd like to see more of an intro page or suggestions on thinking outside the box about the good things I didn't even notice in the day that were there all along.

Great app. I too would like to see more things pop up encouraging happiness and positivity. At the moment it just feels like a journal I am keeping so would like some input from the app designers. Otherwise love it. It reminds me to be happy for what I have

Just what I was looking for-a suggestion Love it. Could you make it so it has the option to remind me to make an entry and let me set the time of day for the reminder?

Hi! Thank you very much for taking the time to make such a thoughtful review :D. I've been busy with graduate school but I'm focused now on improving "Delightful". I'd love to hear more about your thoughts on the character limit and also the 3 good things exercise. Feel free to send me an email to chat: rene@iowadev.com :)

Hi Shannon! Thank you for your feedback! To be completely honest, when I first made the app my skills were limited so the backdating feature eluded me. I have added to my to-do list as I am working on the app currently. Glad you enjoy the app! If you have any additional thoughts or feedback please do send me an email directly at rene@iowadev.com :D
